Here at Hydes, we are not only a pub operator but we also brew our own beer, and have over 150 years of history and heritage

Why work for Hydes?

  • We’re not a branded operation by any means.
  • Our sites are all unique although they share the same commitment to quality and service.
  • Our food is predominately fresh and our menus demand a good skill base to deliver it.
  • Our beer range is underpinned by the fantastic products from our own brewery in Manchester - consistently great at all times. You’ll also see the usual suspects of beer portfolios that customers enjoy.
  • Our wine and spirit ranges include many premium and high end products but do also cater for more standard tastes as well.

The Stamford Bridge is due to undertake a refurbishment in late October. We are now seeking a Deputy Manager to assist in strengthening the management team at the Stamford Bridge. To enhance our strong team, and help us be the best at what we do, and ensure ‘excellence is a habit’.

The Benefits

We offer comprehensive training packages, to ensure that you are to speed with the way we do things. This will include understanding our menus and beers as well as understanding the culture of the site you will be working in.

Career Progression Plans within our estate

  • Salary up to £24,000 per annum
  • 5.6 weeks holiday
  • Company Pension Plan
  • 50% discount card for food at some of our sites upon completion of your mandatory training

The Site

This site is located 2 miles from Chester, and 10 minutes from Chester Zoo. This is a great just-out-of-town country inn. With a large garden, alfresco dining and quality food. There are fantastic views of the Cheshire plains and an outside area that has lots of potential which we will shortly be building on as part of our refurbishment.

The Role

The Deputy Manager is a key role in making the site a success. You will be the leader of the front of house team. You will be knowledgeable about our products, and have passion for food, drink and hospitality.

You will be one of three deputies at the site. You will be the right hand man or woman to the General Manager, taking sole charge in their absence which includes 5 weeks holiday relief per year and 2 days each week. You will also work closely with the Chef to ensure that we provide a first class food service to customers.

The Person

You will have experience at Duty Manager level, and either be looking for a move to your first Deputy Manager role, or be an existing Deputy Manager looking for a role with more responsibility and opportunity to learn, progress and lead the team forward.

You should have previous experience within a busy hospitality setting where you have had day to day dealings with, cask ale, food and functions. You will have ‘held’ a site for a short period of time and had exposure to stock control systems and processes. You will also have knowledge of social media and staff training.
